no. it's not a reasonable request. it's up to the mirrors to keep up to
date. there is no way for mandrakesoft to know that hte mirrors have updated
themsevles or not. now, _if_ a RSVP system was put in place (put rpm file,
reply with email) then it 's not very practical. mdk rpms come out often,
and there are so many mirrosr. the workload would kill people.
